Commercial moves are notoriously complex. Juggling tight deadlines and moving valuable assets, all while keeping your business ticking over, is far from a simple task.
But what if it didn’t have to be that way?
At UK Moves, we believe that your move should work around your schedule and not the other way round. Offsite storage is a key component of the flexible, customised service we offer our clients.
What is offsite storage?
Off-site storage is simply a storage facility that is located somewhere other than your office. At UK Moves, we provide several kinds of offsite storage, from open-plan storage perfect for larger items to secure, air-conditioned storage for high-value and specialist equipment. All of our storage facilities are fully monitored and secured, with a detailed inventory system, ensuring that your valued items stay safe and organised.

Why should I consider offsite storage?
Here are just some of the reasons why offsite storage could make commercial or strategic sense for your business:
- Minimise disruption
Your move doesn’t have to happen all in one go. At UK Moves, we’ll work with you to plan your move in a manner that makes strategic sense for your business. This could include moving non-essential items first while using managed offsite storage as a temporary base for your core operations, allowing your business to stay operational for as long as possible. - Manage refurbishments or staged renovations
Is your team still finalising the finishing touches to your new office? Offsite storage could provide the perfect solution, allowing you to store equipment, furniture, and other stock safely and securely. This helps you avoid the unnecessary stress and hassle of moving into a space that isn’t fully ready yet and will ensure that the vision of your new office is brought to life. - Storing seasonal stock
Many businesses have inventory that’s only required during certain times of the year. To avoid overcrowding or unnecessary wastage, offsite storage can help provide a little extra space for you to store seasonal stock, keeping it safe and secure for next year’s holiday or busy period. - Archiving files
There are many reasons why you may need to hold onto archived files, from compliance and audits to meticulous record-keeping. There’s no reason why those files should take up valuable office space. Offsite storage can provide cost-effective and secure storage, giving you peace of mind.
Avoid hasty decision-making
Moving into a new office is a huge upheaval, and sometimes the layout you planned doesn’t quite fit the reality of your working life. Using offsite storage can help phase the big move, allowing you to try out different layouts or working configurations before finding the perfect fit for you and your team.
